Congrats!
Did they mean Js2 only? Or JS1 as well?

Didn't specify. I was under the impression it was in reference to JS2s. Could have misread it though.

Me too! Got the impression this was a wave, they said they were processing the new batch of enrollment forms starting tomorrow or something like that. Pm for details.

did those who receive the email get admitted?

From what I remember, everyone who got homework last year was admitted. It seems they've cut it this cycle in favor of interest-gauging calls, but emails are still standard for international applicants. I'd be feeling pretty good about now. =)

All of that! - you should hopefully be receiving very good news soon!

Meanwhile I've pretty much lost hope for a js2

IDK if this has been asked before but is it a good idea to send a second LOCI this late in the game?

Based on previous years, are we done with JS2s, waiting for a wave of dings, then having sporadic acceptances throughout the summer? Does anyone have a sense of how many people get in after the May/June JS2 waves?

Also, was the second JS1 wave very small compared to previous years? Does anyone think there is one more wave or just sporadic acceptances?

Anyone think we will see movement of any kind these next few days?

Wasn't last year a wave of dings around this time?

I'm not sure we'll see it, but I'd be nice if they dinged whoever no longer stands a chance

I just checked last year's thread. There was indeed a wave of dings. It looks like post-waitlist JS1s who haven't yet been accepted should brace for a falling ax.

Was it mostly post waitlist JS1s who were dinged? What about no JS1s?

Looks like some of you still have a chance.

Congrats to those who just recently got off the waitlist!

If anyone suddenly has to look for housing, I'm looking to fill the second bedroom of a 2 bedroom apartment that's about three minutes from the law school. Please PM me if you're interested.
